1. It is expected that all work will be completed as scheduled. Late work is subject to
penalty. All assigned work must be presented to the teacher before a semester grade can
be issued. Failure to turn in all assigned work will result in an F.
2. A grade of incomplete will be given only in the event of extreme circumstances.
3. Students are requested to refrain from computer games, email, social networking, or other
unassigned internet activities during class sessions.
4. Please turn off cell phones before the beginning of class. Leaving class to answer a call
disrupts the class and distracts from your classroom participation. Arrangements for your
personal communication need to be made before or after class and not during class.
5. Plagiarism is grounds for a grade of F. The student will be referred to the Dean for further
disciplinary action.
ACADEMIC INTEGRITY
It is assumed that students at AGTS will endeavor to be honest and of high integrity in all
matters pertaining to Seminary life. A lack of respect and integrity is evidenced by cheating,
fabricating, plagiarizing, misusing facilities, removing books and other property not one’s own,
and disrupting classes.
Cheating is defined as “intentionally using or attempting to use unauthorized materials,
information or study aids in any academic exercise.” It is assumed that whatever is
submitted by a student is the work of that student and is new work for that course. Fabrication is
“intentional and unauthorized falsification or invention of any information or citation in an
academic exercise or form.” Plagiarism is “intentionally or knowingly representing the words or
ideas of another as one’s own in any academic exercise.” One who facilitates any of the above is
equally responsible with the primary violator.
Penalties may include restitution, an “F” on an individual paper, exam, or course; loss of
campus employment; disciplinary probation; removal from extracurricular activities; and
suspension.—AGTS Student Handbook
